16 CSS Multi-Step Form UI13 / 16
Contractor & Home Improvement Booking
A local-services booking wizard — Service → Scope → Urgency → Contact — built around big icon-card selection at every step, the pattern that makes trade-services forms tappable with a thumb from a job site. Includes an urgency selector that reorders the promise copy ('today' vs 'this week') on the final step.

Demo: Contractor & Home Improvement Booking
Source: https://codefronts.com/components/css-multi-step-form/contractor-and-home-improvement-booking/
A local-services booking wizard — Service → Scope → Urgency → Contact — built around big icon-card selection at every step, the pattern that makes trade-services forms tappable with a thumb from a job site. Includes an urgency selector that reorders the promise copy ('today' vs 'this week') on the final step.

Demo: Contractor & Home Improvement Booking
Source: https://codefronts.com/components/css-multi-step-form/contractor-and-home-improvement-booking/
A local-services booking wizard — Service → Scope → Urgency → Contact — built around big icon-card selection at every step, the pattern that makes trade-services forms tappable with a thumb from a job site. Includes an urgency selector that reorders the promise copy ('today' vs 'this week') on the final step.

```How this works
Three of the four steps are pure card choices — no typing until the very end, which is why these forms convert on mobile. Cards are the hidden-radio + :has(:checked) pattern with 44px+ targets, drawn SVG trade icons, and a lift-on-hover that respects reduced motion.
The scope step swaps its card set based on the chosen service (data attributes map service → scope options), a light branching pattern handled by toggling hidden on option groups rather than re-rendering. The final CTA echoes service + urgency so the promise ("A roofer will call you today") matches what was picked.
Make it yours
- Add services by copying a card and a matching scope group keyed to its value.
- Tighten the urgency ladder (emergency/today/this week/planning) to your dispatch reality.
- Swap SVG icons for your set; they inherit
currentColor. - Set
--workto your trade brand colour — high-vis yellow works great here.
Gotchas — read before shipping
- Branching by show/hide keeps radios in the DOM — clear the hidden group's selection when the branch changes or stale values submit.
- Icon-only cards fail WCAG — every card needs the visible text label, not a title attribute.
- 'Emergency' options should skip steps, not add them; urgency and patience are inversely correlated.

Floor set by :has(), oklch(), color-mix() as this demo is written. The core technique itself goes back further — Chrome 105+.
:has() for selection states; SVG icons inline (no requests). Everything else is baseline HTML forms.
